    Six hours waiting for the bus is not so bad. A snow crash can really delay traffic.

    359 to 179 is 6 minutes to 3 minutes if it's displaying seconds instead of minutes, fairly close to the times given by the submitter.

    I think it's much more common to mistake seconds for milliseconds, or vice versa. I remember one a few years ago where after a failure, we would go looking for messages in a queue, and although we knew from logs that we should have found some messages, the queue would be empty. Long story short, the TTL on the queue was configured as 604800 - the person configuring it thought that was in seconds, which would be a week, but in milliseconds that's just about 10 minutes, which was fine when everything worked as expected, but led to messages getting automatically purged if there was any delay that required our intervention.
